"Hurston Waldrep will be taking the mound for the Braves. His first seven starts this season were lights out. So much so that BetMGM has him as having the ninth best odds for winning ROY. In his first seven starts this season he only allowed a total of six earned runs which equated to a 1.33 ERA while accumulating thirty-eight strikeouts to sixteen walks."
"His last start was not exactly one that he would like to happen again anytime soon. Against the Astros he lasted 4.2 innings and gave up eight earned runs on eight hits and two walks. This afternoon he will be facing the Nationals for the first time this season. The Nationals are the team he faced for his MLB debut last season that did not go as planned where he gave up seven earned runs. That was before he had his elite splitter locked down."
"Brad Lord will be pitching for the Nationals. He currently has a 4.21 ERA, 3.93 FIP, and a 2.46 SO/BB ratio over 115.1 innings this season. He has quietly had a solid rookie season. He has fluctuated as a starter and a reliever all season long but has settled in as a full-time starter at the end of July. Since that time, he has made ten starts and has struggled to a 5.19 ERA in 50.1 innings while surrendering seven HRs and fifty-three hits."
The Atlanta Braves have won three straight games against the Washington Nationals and seek a fourth consecutive victory. Hurston Waldrep will start and produced a 1.33 ERA with six earned runs allowed, thirty-eight strikeouts, and sixteen walks over his first seven starts. His most recent start was poor, lasting 4.2 innings with eight earned runs, eight hits, and two walks. Waldrep faced the Nationals in his MLB debut last season and allowed seven earned runs before refining his splitter. The Nationals will counter with Brad Lord, who has a 4.21 ERA, 3.93 FIP, and a 2.46 SO/BB over 115.1 innings.
